Just because I'm Black, doesn't make me a Top
Some gay men may need training about race and sexual roles.
For some (stupid) reason, guys still believe if you're, Asian you're automatically a bottom and if you're Black, you're a top.
This is no joke. Guys have approached me assuming that I am a top. In fact, one guy tried to convince me that I was a top. Seriously?
If you are over the age of 30, you shouldn't be making horrible generalizations like that. I'm not a top, so please don't get excited thinking of racial stereotypes when you think of me.
Fantasies are cool, but assumptions are not. If you like a guy, please don't believe foolish stereotypes. Just ask.
You will feel better about it later.

So true, my friend! Excellent point that is applicable beyond merely the sexual context!
I've never understood why sexual role was so important. Can't we all just cuddle?
yeah its super annoying. Especially hearing over and over "oh I thought you were a thug/bad boy/tough guy.." and all of them turning out to be extremely sexually boring and submissive, looking for a "Man" to do all the work.
LMAO, I've gone over this one once before on my own blog.

It's tacky and sad how some white guys stereotype black guys and assign us to a specify sexual role. Uh negative.
I can be a top or bottom it doesn't matter to me at all.
Eye roll at roles . . . it still baffles me
